[TN-Bird] Hummingbirds!!! At last!

Hello Birders,

At long last, hummingbirds appeared at my feeder in the Charlotte Park 
section of West Nashville , Davidson County, near the Cumberland River this 
morning 
at 10:13 AM.  A female and an immature were at the feeder, and a couple of 
others joined them right away thus bringing on a food fight!  I haven't seen a 
male yet, but I hope to have one "flash me" with its brilliant gorget soon.

A little while ago, one of the females was just outside the French doors 
where I observed her checking out one of my drying Hefty Zip bags (yes, I 
recycle 
those for use over & over) which has a bright "hot pink" zipper & zipper 
track.  She flew all up and down around the "pink" area trying to detect 
something 
nourishing before she gave up and flew over to a red portulaca blossom which 
was apparently more satisfying.

It is just grand to have them back, and I already have a couple of pretty 
good photos.

Cheers, prayers & fruitful birding,

Dee Thompson
Nashville, TN
